[bug] org-columns-edit-value will capitalize property

Hello,

After updating the value of property using command 'org-columns-edit-value'
it will capitalize the property name.

As I understand, "Org is standardized on lower case"
https://list.orgmode.org/87tuuw3n15.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr/.

Is this a bug?

Btw. interesting article about using upper case.

This is for historical reasons.
Org supports (and will support) both, and we are slowly converting to
lower case.

Patches welcome to change org-columns-edit-value.

Ok. I will try to send my first patch.
Desired behavior is: by using command 'org-columns-edit-value' do not
change 'property' name, just its value.

My apologies, I've made a mistake. There is not such a bug. Everythings
works correctly.
